Lyrics
I remember leaving Galveston
That's back when we were one
Those days seem like such a blur to me now
I wish there was a way we could get back to there somehow
All I said was there was nothing wrong with you
You said I was just as messed up too
It didn't seem there was any more to say
You had your mind made up all the way
CHORUS
I remember long ago,
when you came you came my way
Everything was so simple then
One day something changed
This is not the way we planned
To let love go and...
Let everyday get in the way
It's difficult when you try to figure out
Why we feel we've nothing left to do but shout
Contempt burns until everything is gone
Fueled by anything it can get its spiteful hands on
CHORUS
I remember long ago,
when you came you came my way
Everything was so simple then
One day something changed
This is not the way we planned
To let love go and...
Let everyday get in the way
Family, friends, and work and neighbors
Obligations never balance out
We go to work everyday wondering
What it's all about
I remember leaving Galveston
That's back when we were one
Those days seem like such a blur to me now
I wish there was a way we could get back to there somehow
CHORUS
I remember long ago,
When you came you came my way
Everything was so simple then
One day something changed
This is not the way we planned
To let love go and...
Let everyday get in the way
We let every day
Get in the way
